October 11, 2022 The Real Deplorables Are Speech Police
There are too many Americans today who would gladly trade liberties for a feeling of security and safety -- including free speech. And the government exploited this atmosphere like never before in the last couple years, using the coronavirus as cause to shut down so-called "dangerous" speech that countered the medical bureaucrat narrative. Now, we're at a time when critical race theory, cancel culture, and wokeness are exploding on the national scene, combining with a hurricane force to steal all that's great about America; all that's free about America; all that's the root of American Exceptionalism. What's more, as Pew Research Center recently found, the speech police are gaining power. Between 2018 and 2021, the percentage of U.S. adults who want the government to control what speech is put out for public consumption has grown by double digits. This is a dangerous time for patriotic Americans who love their liberties. Sid Rosenberg, media giant, offers some solutions for this new woke world we call America.

October 06, 2022 The LGBTQ Lobby Is Coming For Your Kids
Parents of America, be aware: The hard-core lobbyists within the LGBTQ crowd are desirous of corrupting your kids -- and they're not going to stop until they've fully realized their very wicked agenda. It's not enough any more for those in the LGBTQ community to simply win anti-discrimination laws, or simply win enough social tolerance so their lifestyle choices aren't putting them in physical danger. Nowadays, this lobby wants to force those of traditional minds and biblical beliefs and nuclear family preferences to accept their oft-psychologically deranged and sexually charged behaviors and narratives as normal. It's to the point where teachers in schools are told they must refer to Johnny as a "she" or Janie as a "they" else face legal action. And under this far leftist Joe Biden administration, the floodgates have really been opened for the LGBTQ agenda to come on strong. Kris Ullman, president of Eagle Forum, details how the Department of Justice is targeting the organization's Alabama chapter over a state law that prohibits puberty blockers in minors. Talk about weaponizing the DOJ.

October 04, 2022 The Darker Side of Fame
Polls show that many in America, particularly from the Millennial generation, would love to have fame and fortune and celebrity status, no matter the cost. But in the end, fame can prove deadly. So what does it say about those who still seek it? More importantly, what does it say about a society that worships the celebrity -- even the celebrity who hasn't done much by way of achievement to earn this celebrity status? America offers an enviable opportunity to achieve much, but the costs are often steep. Bill O'Reilly talks his latest "Killing Series" blockbuster, "Killing the Legends: The Lethal Danger of Celebrity," and also sheds some light on his own experiences as a celebrity -- including whether, in the end, it's all worthwhile.

September 29, 2022 Christians Must Vote Or America Will Fall
Christians in large numbers have historically sat out America's elections, particularly the midterms. But this is a massive reason why America is facing such perilous times right now. If those who know best about God, fail to keep God at the helm in the politics and culture, then it's only common sense God will be sidelined and more wicked forces will steal the leadership roles. After all, expecting the secular world to put God first is a tad optimistic, if not outright ridiculous -- yes? America's a nation built on the idea that individuals get their rights from God, and that government is only in place to preserve and protect those rights. But remove God from that equation and what remains is government -- and what then happens is government becomes the giver (and taker) of rights. So it's crucially important for those who know best about Judeo-Christian teachings to get involved in the more secular sides of things. Jason Yates, CEO of an organization that tracks Christian participation in elections, tells why

September 27, 2022 Tracking Chips In Children? Yes, Says 'Great Reset'
Children are not animals. Yet Great Reset globalists think it’s a great idea to insert tracking chips in your children, in much the same way dog and cat owners do to their pets. Welcome to the Great Surveillance State. America needs to wake up and smell the tyranny. The left is busily trying to sell the idea the World Economic Forum, the World Health Organization, the United Nations and all the global organizations only have at heart the best interests of the people. But more to truth, they hate individual freedom, they hate individualism, they love collectivism, they love communism — and that sets America right in the sight of their targets. The lockdowns under COVID-19 gave the globalists a little sample of how powerful they could grow in such a short amount of time. And they don’t want to let go. Author Marc Morano discusses the Great Reset’s latest maneuvers, including the strategic mission to kill U.S. energy and transportation systems, and sounds the alarm on why Americans need to awaken to this great danger, and immediately.

September 22, 2022 Ukraine-Russia: The Politically Incorrect Discussion
Subtitle this: Everything the politicians don't want you to know about Ukraine. Why? Because as guest Rebecca Koffler says, the whole Ukraine matter is something that's turned into quite the quagmire. And it never should have been -- it never would have been -- had Donald Trump been in the White House. Taxpayers in America are being billed billions of dollars in aid for Ukraine, but as far as accountability goes, and ensuring the money makes it into the hands of those who are the intended recipients, it's don't ask, don't tell, hands off and turn blind eyes. The media's too busy selling sad, sad images of sad, sad Ukrainians and any one who dares ask about accountability -- as Sen. Rand Paul once tried -- is immediately labeled a hateful scoundrel. Koffler, a Russia-born former U.S. intelligence agent with expertise in Russian affairs, chats up the side of Ukraine-Russia conflicts the politicians don't want discussed and the media doesn't want debated.

September 20, 2022 Dangerous Times Demand a 'Donald Trump 2024'
It's a dark America out there, and if voters think the way to solve the country's many crises is to elect more Democrats this November, they're sadly mistaken. The left has been busily pushing a foundational reset in America, one that favors China and benefits the bureaucrats in global government at the expense of the U.S. citizen. Joe Biden, puppet president, plays right into these bureaucrats' hands. He's the perfect empty suit for far leftists, including the Marxists who've infiltrated the Democrat Party, to steamroll their agenda through the White House, into politics, into the education system, into culture, into the economy. The hard-working taxpayer is suffering. And according to some economists, the financial drag on America's economy in the form of massively high inflation is only going to get worse over the next couple Biden years. What's needed is a jolt to our system; what's needed is a quick course correction. Donald Trump is the guy who could do that. Peter Navarro discusses his new book: "Taking Back Trump's America."

September 15, 2022 It's Not a Union -- It's a Mafia
It's Not a Union -- It's a Mafia Today's public school systems are in shambles, no doubt. But it goes deeper than money, or supplies, or staffing levels. Fact is, most of America's public schools are in total disarray because teachers' unions have taken over the business of teaching, and become more like mafia leaders than servants to the schools. Parents have been painted as intruders. Teachers who simply want to teach are told to pick up that picket sign and march -- or you know what. And administrators who refuse to cave to union demands are put in positions of having to placate the socialist-slash-communist types who've infiltrated the power halls of U.S. education: an impossible task, when it must be balanced with parents' rights. What to do? How to overcome? Are the schools even redeemable any more? Rebecca Friedrichs spent 28 years in California's public school systems, trying to enact change from the inside -- and for that, was vilified. Since, she's started a nonprofit to help fight for America's students, and she has plenty of words of wisdom for those who care about the fate of the nation's liberties, as well as the minds of tomorrow's leaders.

September 13, 2022 Is America Headed For Civil War?
A new poll from YouGovAmerica just found large percentages of Americans of both major political parties, Republicans and Democrats alike, believe this country is headed for a civil war and will actually experience one in the next decade. The disagreements fall along the lines of what the warring parties will be; while Republicans largely believe the civil war will pit political party versus political party, Democrats are more likely to see the uprisings as poor versus rich. In the end, though, the result is the same: America, the divided. This is exactly the opposite of what Joe Biden promised during his campaign and early White House days. Where's the unity, Joe? The problem is deeper than politics, though. It's spiritual. It's the battle of principalities, and it's nearing 12th hour time for the country. If Democrats don't stop their anti-American, anti-God insanities, the country will indeed crumble on civil uprising. Lt. Col. Allen West (retired), executive director of the American Constitutional Rights Union, discusses.

September 08, 2022 Joe Biden's Foolish 'Corn Pop' War on Energy
President Joe Biden has channeled his inner "Corn Pop" to wage a war on climate change -- but it's really a war against America's energy independence. He's foolishly labeling climate change as the biggest danger to humanity, a "clear and present" danger, -- "literally!" -- as he puts it. And meanwhile, American citizens are being put in positions of paying more and more for energy that is either derived from outside sources or taxed to the hilt because of environmental policies. This isn't just a pocketbook issue. This is a national security matter. If America can't stay energy independent, it won't be long before the country will be put in a position of begging for basic resources from other countries -- meaning, it won't be long before America is totally reliant on the good graces of other countries to keep us afloat. It doesn't take a genius to see the dangers of this road. Rear Admiral (retired) Mike Hewitt, an expert in energy policy and national security issues, discusses.
